Item 2.02. Results of Operations and Financial Condition.

On July 20, 2010, UnitedHealth Group Incorporated (the “Company”) issued a press release announcing its second quarter 2010 results. A copy of the press release is furnished herewith as Exhibit 99.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The press release contains the non-GAAP financial measures adjusted first quarter and adjusted second quarter 2010 medical costs days payable, which exclude an increase in medical costs days payable from the acquisition of Health Net of the Northeast’s Medicaid and/or commercial businesses in December 2009.

The most directly comparable GAAP financial measures to these non-GAAP measures are first and second quarter 2010 medical costs days payable, which were 49 days and 50 days, respectively.

A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is attached to the press release.

The information in this Item 2.02 shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference in any Company filing under the Securities Act of 1933, except as shall be expressly set forth by specific reference in such filing.
